Saugatuck Red Barn Theatre Movie Night- “Murder on the Orient Express"
Date: Tuesday, June 12, 2012
Start Time: 7:00 pm
Location: Red Barn Theatre
Category: Saugatuck & Douglas Events
Get More Details:
The Red Barn Theater’s film series continues June 12 with “Murder on the Orient Express,” a 1974 realization of Agatha Christie’s 1934 novel featuring a vast cast of film stars topped by Albert Finney as Hercule Poirot, whose little gray cells solve the most difficult of cases. Ingrid Bergman won an Oscar for her portrayal of, oddly enough, a middle-aged Swedish governess.
The film adheres fairly closely to Christie’s original plot. Poirot, returning from a case in the Middle East, boards the Orient Express to travel homeward. Poirot is asked by his friend Bianchi (Martin Balsam), a train company director, to investigate the murder of an American business tycoon, Mr. Ratchett (Richard Widmark, aboard a train with an all-star cast of suspects, among them Bergman, Lauren Bacall, Sean Connery, Sir John Gielgud, Vanessa Redgrave, Michael York, and Anthony Perkins.
The plot turns on the discovery that the business tycoon was actually a vicious criminal who many years before had kidnapped and killed an infant belonging to a wealthy family, reminiscent of the slaying of the Lindbergh baby. Given this revelation, it is hard not to empathize with the 13 suspects, but Poirot carries on, actually providing two alternative solutions to the mystery.
The film begins at 7 p.m.when you can join host John Hardy in front of The Big Screen at The Red Barn, 3657 63rd St. at Blue Star Hwy., Saugatuck, about a quarter mile east of Exit 41 off of I-196. Suggested donation is $5. Free popcorn from CNJ Popcorn Co. and $1 concessions. Call (269) 857-5300 for more information or email lakeshorearts@comcast.net

2011 marks 30 years since AIDS descended. Like an unrelenting hurricane, the epidemic roiled San Francisco for two decades and only began granting some reprieve with medical advancements in the late 90s. The death years of AIDS left the City ravaged and exhausted, yet, as in most of the developed world, the worst seems past. Though thousands are still living with HIV, and new infections continue at an alarming rate, the relentless suffering of the 80s and 90s has given way to a kind of calm, and, understandably, a degree of willful forgetfulness.
We Were Here utilizes San Francisco’s experience with AIDS to open up an overdue conversation both about the history of the epidemic, and the lessons to be learned from it.

Saugatuck Red Barn Theatre Movie Night -"Terms of Endearment"
Date: Tuesday, June 5, 2012
Start Time: 7:00 pm
Location: Red Barn Theatre
Category: Saugatuck & Douglas Events
Get More Details:
The Red Barn Theater’s film series continues June 5 with “Terms of Endearment,” the 1982 romantic comedy featuring Shirley McLaine, Debra Winger, and Jack Nicholson. With a story based on Larry McMurtry’s novel, the film won five Oscars. McLaine was Best Actress, Nicholson was Best Supporting Actor, and James L. Brooks won the honors for Best Director, Best Picture, and Best Screenplay.
The story, full of witty repartee and comic situations, covers thirty years of the relationship between Aurora Greenway (MacLaine) and her daughter Emma (Winger). Both women struggle to find joy. Emma gets married immediately upon graduating from high school, bearing two children that she and her husband, college professor Flap Horton (Jeff Daniels) struggle to support. She telephones her mother and asks for money when she is pregnant with her third child. Aurora, not knowing that Emma is already several months pregnant, wants Emma to get an abortion. Emma's once-passionate marriage becomes strained, thanks mostly to his philandering, and she has an affair with an older banker (John Lithgow).
Meanwhile, Aurora, after striking out with many men, gravitates toward her next door neighbor of 15 years, the retired astronaut and playboy Garrett Breedlove (Nicholson).
The film begins at 7 p.m. when you can join host John Hardy in front of The Big Screen at The Red Barn, 3657 63rd St. at Blue Star Hwy., Saugatuck, about a quarter mile east of Exit 41 off of I-196.

Saugatuck Red Barn Theatre Presents "The Eschelons"
Date: Saturday, June 2, 2012
Start Time: 7:30 pm
Location: Red Barn Theatre
Category: Saugatuck & Douglas Events
Get More Details:
The Eschelons originally formed in the late 1950s in Grand Rapids. They released three 45-rpm recordings during 1961 and 1962 and were among the most popular bands of that time.
In 2005 the original six members reunited, added an additional musician and a sound technician, and quickly became West Michigan’s foremost oldies band. Performing the music they love, The Eschelons play 50s and early 60s rock ‘n’ roll, doo-wop and blues, often displaying three, four and five-part vocal harmonies reminiscent of the music of that period.
Five vocalists, keyboards, sax, harmonica, guitar, bass and drums, and an array of percussion blend to bring you the pleasure of old friendships and the memories of Rock ‘N’ Roll’s childhood. Some of the songs that we play are Sea Cruise, In My Room, Where or When, Kansas City, Remember Then, I’m Tore Down, and Yakety Yak. Some artists we cover are The Lettermen, The Coasters, The Velvets, The Beach Boys, Dion & the Belmonts, Freddie King, and The Stereos. We have some originals, too.
The members of The Eschelons are:
Al Bischoff – sax, harmonica, percussion & vocals
Jack Hazewinkel – bass
Vic Hill – percussion & vocals
Jim VanPutten – sax, percussion & vocals
Warren Beatty – keyboards & vocals
Dick Beatty/Rob Beatty – drums
Ron Beatty – guitar & vocals
John Hoekstra – sound
The Fun kicks off at 7:30 PM
Admission is just $20 for this
Enjoy music that requires no thinking! Ignite some old memories and create some new ones!

The Eschelons originally formed in the late 1950s in Grand Rapids. They released three 45-rpm recordings during 1961 and 1962 and were among the most popular bands of that time.
In 2005 the original six members reunited, added an additional musician and a sound technician, and quickly became West Michigan’s foremost oldies band. Performing the music they love, The Eschelons play 50s and early 60s rock ‘n’ roll, doo-wop and blues, often displaying three, four and five-part vocal harmonies reminiscent of the music of that period.
Five vocalists, keyboards, sax, harmonica, guitar, bass and drums, and an array of percussion blend to bring you the pleasure of old friendships and the memories of Rock ‘N’ Roll’s childhood. Some of the songs that we play are Sea Cruise, In My Room, Where or When, Kansas City, Remember Then, I’m Tore Down, and Yakety Yak. Some artists we cover are The Lettermen, The Coasters, The Velvets, The Beach Boys, Dion & the Belmonts, Freddie King, and The Stereos. We have some originals, too.
The members of The Eschelons are:
Al Bischoff – sax, harmonica, percussion & vocals
Jack Hazewinkel – bass
Vic Hill – percussion & vocals
Jim VanPutten – sax, percussion & vocals
Warren Beatty – keyboards & vocals
Dick Beatty/Rob Beatty – drums
Ron Beatty – guitar & vocals
John Hoekstra – sound
The Fun kicks off at 7:30 PM
Admission is just $20 for this
Enjoy music that requires no thinking! Ignite some old memories and create some new ones!

Rooted in New Wave and 1960’s rock in roll, the B-52s created their own “guy vs. gals” vocal trademark, highlighted with their hit, “Love Shack.” The band's name comes from a particular beehive hairdo that resembles the nose cone of the aircraft of the same name. The B-52s are an enthusiastic, slightly oddball party band, who tell tales that glorify wild youth and celebrate romance.

Hailing from Roanoke, VA, they could have just as easily stepped out of Coney Island in the mid-1950s, or a forgotten diner along Route 66, or any number of dusty midwestern traveling carnivals. They evoke boardwalks, midways, sideshows, World Fairs & all the best elements of true Americana. It's impossible to go wrong with any band that features both a kazoo AND a ukulele, and if you're able to watch them without cracking a smile and tapping a toe, you should probably check your pulse.
Tickets: $7 door / $5 advance & members
